William F. Buckley: How I Conspired to Kill Off Domestic Anti-Communism

Re-posted by Nicholas Stix

A Republican conspiracy to kill off populist patriots. Hmm, that sounds familiar.

Buckley closes, by insinuating that he made Ronald Reagan’s electoral victories possible. Garbage. Buckley’s only contribution to Reagan was in not conspiring to destroy him, too.

“The wound we Palm Beach plotters delivered to the John Birch Society proved fatal over time. Barry Goldwater did not win the presidency, but he clarified the proper place of anti-Communism on the Right, with bright prospects to follow.”

Thanks to William F. Buckley Jr.’s successful war on domestic anti-Communism, Communism triumphed in America. Thanks to the anti-populist, anti-patriotic tradition he founded, the GOP and America may soon be no more, or will exist in name only.
 

Goldwater, the John Birch Society and Me
By William F. Buckley Jr.
Updated Feb. 27, 2008 12:01 a.m. ET

In the early months of 1962, there was restiveness in certain political quarters of the right. The concern was primarily the growing strength of the Soviet Union, and the reiteration by its leaders of their designs on the free world. Some of the actors keenly concerned felt that Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona was a natural leader in the days ahead.

But it seemed inconceivable that an antiestablishment gadfly like Goldwater could be nominated as the spokesman-head of a political party. And it was embarrassing that the only political organization in town that dared suggest this radical proposal--the GOP's nominating Goldwater for president--was the John Birch Society.

The society had been founded in 1958 by an earnest and capable entrepreneur named Robert Welch, a candy man, who brought together little clusters of American conservatives, most of them businessmen. He demanded two undistracted days in exchange for his willingness to give his seminar on the Communist menace to the United States, which he believed was more thoroughgoing and far-reaching than anyone else in America could have conceived. His influence was near-hypnotic, and his ideas wild. He said Dwight D. Eisenhower was a "dedicated, conscious agent of the Communist conspiracy," and that the government of the United States was "under operational control of the Communist party." It was, he said in the summer of 1961, "50-70 percent" Communist-controlled.

Welch refused to divulge the size of the society's membership, though he suggested it was as high as 100,000 and could reach a million. His method of organization caused general alarm. The society comprised a series of cells, no more than 20 people per cell. It was said that its members were directed to run in secret for local offices and to harass school boards and librarians on the matter of the Communist nature of the textbooks and other materials they used.

The society became a national cause célèbre--so much so, that a few of those anxious to universalize a draft-Goldwater movement aiming at a nomination for president in 1964 thought it best to do a little conspiratorial organizing of their own against it.

* * *

In January of that year I had a telephone call from William Baroody. It was, he said, a matter of great national importance that I spend Tuesday and Wednesday of the following week with Sen. Goldwater in Palm Beach, Fla. I would be one of three--along with Russell Kirk, the philosopher and author of the seminal 1953 text "The Conservative Mind," and public-relations man Jay Hall, who had represented General Motors in Washington. I said I could be there up until 5 p.m. on day one and all of day two. I had a speaking date in St. Augustine on the first night. Baroody simply repeated that the meeting was very important.

Baroody was the head of the American Enterprise Institute, a right-wing think tank founded in 1943. We had met only cursorily, though I knew him to be an influential figure in behind-the-scenes conservative politics. He was invigorated by meetings with small groups, which he much enjoyed dominating. It was clear that he greatly aspired to be important to Goldwater, and perhaps to a Goldwater White House.

I arrived at breakfast with the other invitees at the imposing Breakers Hotel and ventilated the critical point: were we here assembled to answer Goldwater's questions, or to proffer advice on the presidential campaign two years ahead? If the latter, this had to mean that Goldwater had resolved to enter the campaign, which would be big news: so far, he had steadfastly declined to take that step.

Baroody, by nature domineering, was emphatic on the subject. Under no circumstances should anything be said touching on a presidential campaign, inasmuch as Goldwater had not himself decided whether to run and did not want to spend time discussing the issue.

Russell Kirk was not prepared simply to leave the matter closed. "What is more important," he asked Baroody, "than to try to get Goldwater elected President?"

Baroody was obliged to agree that this would be a wonderful national achievement. "But he has said no."

"They always say no," I volunteered.

"Bill, he has said no on at least five different occasions. If he thought we were going to spend the day on that subject, he would just walk away."
Kirk objected. "I'm the least experienced politically of the people in this room. But I've seen the polls--we've all seen the polls--and Bill has a point: Why should we shrink from telling him that's what he ought to do?"

It required someone of Kirk's arrant innocence in consorting with brute political forces to make his point so insistently. He let go of it only after Baroody promised that he would seek out, some time later, an opportunity for Russell to argue it personally with Goldwater. "Maybe you can tell him something about William Pitt that will change his mind."

Kirk smiled. "Very well. So what do you have in mind for us?"

"We'll have to coast on that."

* * *

Goldwater was in Palm Beach visiting, incognito, with a sister-in-law who was resident there. He arrived at our hotel suite at about 11:00 in extravagantly informal garb, cowboy hat and dark glasses, a workman's blue shirt and denim jeans, together with his beloved Western boots. He did bring along a weather-beaten briefcase, though I never noticed his opening it the whole day.

What followed was an hour of general discussion on the policies of President Kennedy and the failure of the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba. Baroody noted Kennedy's surprising drop in the polls: 61% of the public thought he spent money too freely, a third thought him unduly weak in opposing Soviet challenges in Berlin and elsewhere.

Moving on, Baroody brought up the John Birch Society. It was quickly obvious that this was the subject Goldwater wished counsel on.

Kirk, unimpeded by his little professorial stutter, greeted the subject with fervor. It was his opinion, he said emphatically, that Robert Welch was a man disconnected from reality. How could anyone reason, as Welch had done in "The Politician," that President Eisenhower had been a secret agent of the Communists? This mischievous unreality was a great weight on the back of responsible conservative political thinking. The John Birch Society should be renounced by Goldwater and by everyone else--Kirk turned his eyes on me--with any influence on the conservative movement.

But that, Goldwater said, is the problem. Consider this, he exaggerated: "Every other person in Phoenix is a member of the John Birch Society. Russell, I'm not talking about Commie-haunted apple pickers or cactus drunks, I'm talking about the highest cast of men of affairs. Any of you know who Frank Cullen Brophy is?"

I raised my hand. "I spent a lot of time with him. He was going to contribute capital to help found National Review. He didn't." Brophy was a prominent Arizona banker.

Goldwater said he knew nothing about that, but added that Brophy certainly was aware of Goldwater's personal enthusiasm for the magazine and especially for its Washington editor, Brent Bozell. "Why isn't Brent
here?" he turned to Baroody.

"He's in Spain."

"Well, our--my--'Conscience of a Conservative' continues to sell." Bozell, who was also my brother-in-law, had ghostwritten the book, which had given Goldwater a national profile.

Kirk said he could not imagine Bozell disagreeing on the need to excommunicate the John Birch Society from the conservative movement.
But this brought another groan from Goldwater. "You just can't do that kind of thing in Arizona. For instance, who on earth can dismiss Frank Brophy from anything?"

* * *

Time was given to the John Birch Society lasting through lunch, and the subject came up again the next morning. We resolved that conservative leaders should do something about the John Birch Society. An allocation of responsibilities crystallized.

Goldwater would seek out an opportunity to dissociate himself from the "findings" of the Society's leader, without, however, casting any aspersions on the Society itself. I, in National Review and in my other writing, would continue to expose Welch and his thinking to scorn and derision. "You know how to do that," said Jay Hall.

I volunteered to go further. Unless Welch himself disowned his operative fallacy, National Review would oppose any support for the society.

"How would you define the Birch fallacy?" Jay Hall asked.

"The fallacy," I said, "is the assumption that you can infer subjective intention from objective consequence: we lost China to the Communists, therefore the President of the United States and the Secretary of State wished China to go to the Communists."

"I like that," Goldwater said.

What would Russell Kirk do? He was straightforward. "Me? I'll just say, if anybody gets around to asking me, that the guy is loony and should be put away."

"Put away in Alaska?" I asked, mock-seriously. The wisecrack traced to Robert Welch's expressed conviction, a year or so earlier, that the state of Alaska was being prepared to house anyone who doubted his doctrine that fluoridated water was a Communist-backed plot to weaken the minds of the American public.

* * *

In the next issue of my magazine, National Review, I published a 5,000-word excoriation of Welch:

How can the John Birch Society be an effective political instrument while it is led by a man whose views on current affairs are, at so many critical points . . . so far removed from common sense? That dilemma weighs on conservatives across America. . . . The underlying problem is whether conservatives can continue to acquiesce quietly in a rendition of the causes of the decline of the Republic and the entire Western world which is false, and, besides that, crucially different in practical emphasis from their own.

In response, National Review received the explicit endorsement of Sen. Goldwater himself, who wrote a letter we published in the following issue:

I think you have clearly stated the problem which Mr. Welch's continued leadership of the John Birch Society poses for sincere conservatives. . . . Mr. Welch is only one man, and I do not believe his views, far removed from reality and common sense as they are, represent the feelings of most members of the John Birch Society. . . . Because of this, I believe the best thing Mr. Welch could do to serve the cause of anti-Communism in the United States would be to resign. . . . We cannot allow the emblem of irresponsibility to attach to the conservative banner.

The wound we Palm Beach plotters delivered to the John Birch Society proved fatal over time. Barry Goldwater did not win the presidency, but he clarified the proper place of anti-Communism on the Right, with bright prospects to follow.

Mr. Buckley, who died today at 82, was the founder of National Review. This article appears in the March issue of Commentary.

Fort Worth Police Department Learns More About Illegal Alien Moya Alas, 36, Who Allegedly Kidnapped, Raped Six-Year-Old Girl

By A Texas Reader
 

FWPD learns more about undocumented immigrant who allegedly kidnapped, assaulted girl
www.wfaa.com

"Police detectives spent Monday going door to door, informing neighbors about an alleged sexual assault and aggravated assault that occurred over the weekend. They're trying to determine if Moya Alas, 36, the man accused of taking a 6-year-old girl from her home early Saturday morning, had any prior relationship with the girls' family."

Of course the perp knew the family.

Both the perp and family are here illegally.

He probably sacked out on the sofa for $50 per month.

One of my siblings owns rental properties in Old East Dallas: two condos, and two houses. He had Section 8 tenants in the two rent houses.

This was about 20 years ago.

One home housed a Vietnamese family. The family was headed by a single mother with Eurasian kids. Apparently, her late husband was a white G.I. who had been killed in Southeast Asia.

The second home housed a Laotian family.

The Vietnamese woman used to rent the sofa out to a "migrant" from Central America. He worked in an American Standard plant in South Dallas. Don't know the rent, but she was making a killing off him, plus her dirt-cheap Section 8 rent.

Folks from the Third World do this shit all the time.

So, don't be surprised if I send you an update shortly on the Fort Worth story. And the update most likely will prove that the family had taken the perp in.

Noble Savagery: The Invented Indian (A Classic Jared Taylor Review!)

Noble Savagery
By Jared Taylor
December 1991
American Renaissance
 

James A. Clifton, The Invented Indian, Transaction Publishers, 1990, 388 pp., $29.95

In America virtually all non-whites can trade on their skin color and on tales of past victimization in order to extract benefits from guilt-ridden whites. Blacks are recognized experts at this game, but American Indians have been perhaps even more successful.

At the heart of their success has been the creation of a mythical past inhabited by Indians who never were. The Invented Indian, edited by veteran anthropologist James Clifton, is a brilliant dissection of the myths that have been so widely circulated by Indians and their white apologists. Each of the collection’s 16 authors demolishes an aspect of the myth or describes the cynical purposes it has served.

This book so brazenly flouts America’s unwritten rules on how to talk about minorities, that it is a wonder it was ever published. It would be impossible to bring out a similar book about blacks or Hispanics, and it is a joy to find serious scholars who are willing to write the truth as they see it, without regard to political consequences.

The Myth

The great myth is essentially borne out by whatever one is likely to hear about Indians from non-specialist sources. Professor Clifton devotes several pages to fleshing it out, but it can be quickly summarized: Indians were spiritual, egalitarian, innocent people living in perfect harmony with the earth. They welcomed the white man, taught him the secrets of the wilderness, and shared with him the wisdom of their social institutions. In return, the white man enslaved and slaughtered the Indian, afflicted him with hideous diseases, and tried to destroy his culture.

Nevertheless, runs the myth, the Native American has survived. Though he has been dispossessed and politically emasculated, his spirit remains pure. As the white man begins to acknowledge the horrors he has wrought upon the Indian, so has he begun to study and appreciate the age-old wisdom and natural virtue to which all Indians, everywhere, are heir.

Like all myths, this one leaves certain things out: in this case, cannibalism, infanticide, ritual torture, geronticide, slaughter of prisoners, slavery, and the like. Such practices, though well substantiated, are seldom written about by historians and ethnographers for fear of violating what Prof. Clifton calls the Eleventh Commandment of the Indian business: Never Say No To An Indian. One of the Commandment’s corollaries prohibits writing or saying anything that Indians might not wish to hear. Most Indians know very little about their ancestors of centuries ago, and would vigorously deny accusations of slavery or cannibalism.

In Canada, certain agreeable fictions have semi-legal status. Whenever work crews find human bones at ancient camp sites, for example, they must take special measures not to violate the sacred dead. Broken or burnt human bones — evidence of certain now-embarrassing practices — can be treated like animal bones.

Stressing the Positive

On the stress-the-positive side of the myth we find the wisdom that the white man is supposed to have learned from the Indian. Every school child has heard of Squanto, the Algonquin who taught the Pilgrims to fertilize their corn with fish. As Lynn Ceci points out in a fascinating essay, there is no evidence that any North American tribes used fertilizer of any kind. Squanto, who had a very interesting and well-documented career, probably learned about it in Newfoundland, where he lived for some time among English settlers who routinely fertilized with fish.

School children do not learn that Squanto had lived in both England and Spain, spoke fluent English, and was hardly the noble, simple savage the history books make him out to be. As Dr.Ceci points out, the image of generous Squanto tends to obscure the more accurate picture of Indians who often attacked and killed settlers.

Another part of the great Indian myth that has recently been picking up steam, is that early Americans learned about democracy and the advantages of unity by studying the Iroquois Confederation. One of the authors traces the origins of this myth, and explodes the idea that the Constitution could have been influenced, in any way, by the matrilineal and hereditary form of representation practiced by the Iroquois.

One reason such preposterous notions make any headway at all is that it has become nearly obligatory to describe Indian societies as idyllically egalitarian, even “non-sexist.” Of course, there were hundreds of different tribal societies with different customs, but all of them had well defined sex roles that would horrify Gloria Steinem. Often, women were treated scarcely better than beasts of burden.

As for egalitarianism, it is difficult for bare subsistence-level hunters and gatherers to practice anything else, but as soon as material surplus appeared, some people got more of it than others. Leland Donald writes about the Tutchone of the southern Yukon, who lived on land so harsh as to be nearly uninhabitable. Nevertheless, their society was divided into hereditary classes of rich, poor, and slaves. As Dr. Donald puts it, “even in conditions that seem ideal for the presence of the classic egalitarian Indian society, it is possible for marked inequalities to emerge.”

The potlatches and ruinous gift-giving that were required for status among the more prosperous Northwest Indians are well known, but somehow coexist with the myth that Indians all lived in innocent classlessness. Even well known expressions like “low man on the totem pole” fail to puncture the myth.

Another important part of the image is the perfect harmony with nature in which Indians are said to have lived. Once again, sparsely scattered, stone-age people have very little choice about the matter, but “Mother Earth” is central to the myth. All Indians, it is said, saw the earth as their beloved mother. Hills were her breasts, streams were mother’s milk, and vegetation was her lovely hair.

Astounding as it may seem, one of the authors explains that the entire Mother Earth story can be traced to a single statement made by a single Indian in 1885. There is virtually no other evidence that Indians thought of the earth as mother. Nevertheless, the Mother Earth belief is now so widely attributed not only to American Indians but to all primitive peoples that it is frightful heresy to point out how unsubstantiated it is.

Not surprisingly, there are plenty of entrepreneurs — Indian and non-Indian — who have parlayed the notion of the noble, nature-wise Indian into a means of parting gullible whites from their money. People with names like Rolling Thunder and Spotted Fawn do a brisk business promoting sweat lodges, sun dances, purification ceremonies, or whatever else aging hippies can be made to pay for. These ceremonies bear only a vague resemblance to anything the Indians of the past ever did, but there is a steady market for them.

According to another author, the same can be said for the pottery sold on the Pamunkey Indian reservation in Virginia. The Pamunkey stopped making pottery in the 1890s and started up again in the 1930s only because the state of Virginia paid to establish a pottery school on the reservation. Now tourists happily buy “Indian” pots, decorated with stick figure “writing” that is likewise a 20th century invention.

The High Counters

Minor frauds like these are relatively harmless. Deliberate attempts to manipulate thinking about Indians are more serious. David Henige of the University of Wisconsin reports that there is a small academic industry devoted to inflating the population estimates of Pre-Columbian America. If evidence can be found that tens of millions of healthy, happy Indians were living on the continent before the white man arrived, then the reduction of their numbers through warfare and disease can be made to seem all the more heinous.

The High Counters, as Mr. Henige calls them, pore over ancient accounts, pick the most exaggerated population estimates they can find, and solemnly pass them along as wholly credible. One scholar, for example, believes that a single energetic priest actually baptized, and counted, 14,000 Indians in a single day — one every six seconds, ‘round the clock. Others think that when Cortes said he faced an army of “more than 149,000” men, he can be relied on to have counted them accurately.

As Mr. Henige points out, numbers like these are just another way of saying “a lot,” but it is the scholars who are prepared to believe the worst of the colonizing white man who have the deepest faith in his ability to count people in crowds. Other High Counters would have it that European diseases swept through native tribes before the white man found them, killing up to half the population before Europeans could even start counting them.

If, by whatever means, the High Counters can gin up enough pre-Columbian Indians, they can then trot out the great, anti-white totem word, “genocide,” when they talk about the legacy of Columbus. The University of Oklahoma has even published a book called American Indian Holocaust and Survival.

Indian Givers

Present descendants of invented Indians have woven the strands of myth into a mighty whip with which to beat the white man. They have, for example, mobilized reservoirs of public sympathy for huge land claims. Allan van Gestel, who has defended current owners against such claims, estimates that since 1970, Indian law suits have clouded the title to 35 million acres in the Eastern United States alone. This is an area the size of Austria or Ireland.

Indians can always call on teams of eager whites who will work for them pro bono. Clever lawyers have based most land cases on an obscure Congressional proclamation of 1783 that forbade the states to buy land from Indian tribes without federal permission. This was six years before the Constitution even went into effect, and several state governments had bought land from Indians even before the proclamation. This has not stopped tribes from trying to get back land that was duly purchased — and that has been enormously improved in the last two hundred years.

Public sentiment, stoked by tales about the invented Indian, is such that Indians can virtually monopolize the services of scholars and historians; to testify “against” Indians can ruin a career. Some Indian claims have cost current land-owners hundreds of millions of dollars.

Today, the federal government has primary responsibility for dealing with Indians, but states and Canadian provinces also manage publicly funded Indian programs. According to Steven Feraca, a long-time worker at the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), all of these bureaucracies have long been given over to race-based hiring and promotion. Preferences at the Bureau are so blatant, and career prospects for non-Indians so bleak, that although Indians are only 1/2 percent of the US population, they hold 75 percent of the jobs at BIA.

In the last few decades, the “Indian desks” of virtually all branches of government have been turned over to Indians, so that decisions that are supposed to be made in the names of larger jurisdictions are in the hands of unabashed partisans. Tribal “leaders” are now often indistinguishable from Indian-affairs bureaucrats, with no way to sort out the resulting conflicts of interest. What is more, as another author points out, chronic lateness and absenteeism in these offices are routinely excused by the notion that Indians work according to mysterious earth rhythms rather than by the white man’s clock.

In sum, both in Canada and in the United States, Indians have succeeded in becoming a kind of Uber-citizen. Off the reservation, they have all the usual legal rights, in addition to the strenuous affirmative-action preferences that are now obligatory. On the reservation, they enjoy a kind of extraterritoriality, which exempts them from many taxes and laws, and entitles them to a complete array of Indians-only health and welfare benefits. They have suckled at the public teat for longer than any other group in North America, and bear the stigmata of listlessness and squalor to prove it.

Next year will mark the 500th anniversary of Columbus’ discovery of America. What, by all rights, should be a proud celebration of the spread of civilization to the New World, has already been hijacked by cultural relativists who see in the white man nothing but wickedness. The October issue of National Geographic begins a series of “quincentenary” articles, in which the editors flatter themselves on letting Indians write from “the most intimate — and perhaps truest — perspective of all.”

Such a series is likely to be filled with the exploits of invented Indians — more of what Prof. Clifton calls “perfectly enchanting fiction … that is both believed by its impresarios and presented as believable to others.” His book, impressively researched and stuffed with fascinating details, is the perfect antidote.

Glaivester’s Political Sociology of American Jews Has Utility for White American Gentiles, as Well

Re-posted by Nicholas Stix

Glaivester breaks down American Jews into the Jewish Establishment (E), Blue Pills (followers of E), and Red Pills (those who have seen through E).

Doesn’t that sound familiar? To me, it sounds like a political sociology of American whites, but with a different Establishment. How does the saying go? “The Jews are just like the rest of us, only more so”?
 

On (((Jews))) - (E(Jews)E), (B(Jews)B), and (R(Jews)R)
June 20, 2016
Glaivester

Being somewhat connected with alt-right (don't know if I am alt-right, neoreactionary, etc. or what. Don't really care which label fits me), it has come to my attention that there is a lot of discussion about the role that Jews play in the current anti-white (anti-white Gentile, anyway) fever.

Thinking about things, I have come to a conclusion.

I think that most Jews who take an interest in internal European and America politics can be divided into one of three camps:

The Jewish establishment. JewE, if you will. These are the people who lead the big, well-funded groups, as well as those who actively agree with them. These largely do to one extent or another fit the stereotype of the guy who wants to tear down white Gentile/Christian culture wherever it exists, and do see racial minorities and third-worlders as weapons to be used against white Gentiles. Examples would be Abe Foxman, Barbara Lerner Spectre, and Chuck Schumer. Other examples would be Paul Singer and Sheldon Adelson, but Adelson's recent willingness to support Trump has opened the possibility that he might be willing to prioritize other things over inundating the U.S. with human flotsam and jetsam.

Blue-pill Jews. Basically, these are rank-and-file Jews who more or less follow JewE, but largely out of inertia, out of an assumption that they are looking out for their best interests, or other mundane reasons. There is no active hatred of Christians or white Gentiles, although there may be a back-of-the mind fear that drives them to the establishment for protection. I don't know if I have that many examples, because by definition I am mostly talking about people who are not setting agendas but following others.

Red-pill Jews. These are Jews who realize that Western culture is a good thing, and to the extent they are ethnocentric, as good for the Jews, and either see Jewish culture (and Israel) as part of the west or as symbiotic with the west. They see Islam as the great threat, and see white Gentiles as being, on the whole, friends or potential friends. I would include bloggers Nicholas Stix, The Mad Jewess, Mickey Kaus, and Ilana Mercer among this number.

I think that with the increasing Muslim population, Europe's Jews are increasingly getting red-pilled.

In many ways, American Jews are sort of like the GOP in 2004 - rot at the establishment top, lots of people following "their team," and only a few really caring about the problems that they are heading into.

So, if you want to use the ((())) symbols around Jewish people, may I suggest (E()E) for Establishment types (I sort of like the name "JewE"), (B()B) for blue-pill types (largely the only (B()B) types that would be prominent enough to mention would be "man on the street" interviewees or maybe someone who once wrote a letter to the editor), and (R()R) for red-pill types.

That is all.

The Empire Strikes Back: The Bush Family Supports Crooked Hillary

By Grand Rapids Anonymous

When the Bush family says they're for Clinton, I guess they mean business. "Dubya's" nephew comes out with a video that will be the talk of the debate this Sunday. There will be nothing to lose, if Trump decides to fire back about Bill and Hillary’s sham marriage now. Might as well throw in HRC's attacks on slick Willie's girlfriends, as well. If anyone has anything on Huma and Hillary--bring it out.

I can't believe the Bushes sunk to this despicable level. You know they were waiting for this opportunity. October surprise, indeed. Most of what I 've read by regular people, is the guys don't care about what Trump said, I know I don't--but the Evangelicals are a different story. How can they vote for Trump, or anyone?

So they stay home, the blacks stay home--that's a draw. That brings it to white men and white women. That's a split? Then the Mexicans (who screw around on their wives as a hobby) bring the tie-breaker to Clinton. What an effed up election.

I heard the Clintons were regarded as the greatest mudslingers in history, and would sink to any level, pull any dirty trick to be president. This proves it.

It sounds like a wake on FoxNews tonight. There are even calls for Trump to drop out of the race. Paul Ryan and a few others are starting the drumbeat. Trump may not even make it to the debate on Sunday. I wouldn't bet on it.

N.S.: Is there something I missed? All I know about is the audio of Trump and some other guy(s) talking dirty in private. Despair not, GRA!

A friend watched the first debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton with an older, conservative, Southern, female, relative. She was distressed by the Republican presidential nominee’s style—even though, to my eye, he pulled his punches.
Since I have so much in common with Trump, I feel uniquely qualified to explain why she was so put off by the candidate. Trump is at least 6’2,” while I’m… not. Trump went off to Wharton, while I attended the Asphalt League. Trump is a billionaire, while I have spent my life scheming and clawing my way up to the exalted reaches of the lower working class.

Hmm. Let’s try that again.

I just got a fundraising letter (see below) from the Southern Poverty Law Center, coauthored by notorious race hoaxer, Keegan Hankes.

The SPLC has a war chest of $200 million. It promotes the destruction of America and the West, through genocide against the white race.

I have been fighting the SPLC for many years. Back in 2008, my old SPLC friend, Mark Potok, insinuated that I was a Nazi, while trying to get legendary, Baltimore radio talk show host Ron Smith (may he rest in peace) fired from his Baltimore Sun column, merely for mentioning me! A “well-known white nationalist,” he called me.

That was in a letter to the editor of the Baltimore Sun, which ran about double the Sun’s official word count. I wrote a response, but the letters editor (whose name I can’t recall), insisted that I adhere to the much shorter official word count for letters to the editor. I told him that I would either get the same word count as Mark, or it was no dice. No dice.

The editor was obviously an ally of Mark’s.

Well, Mark failed to get Ron fired, though the Sun did censor some of his manuscripts. Unfortunately, however, the Bic C succeeded, where Mark Potok and the Sun’s letters editor failed, in taking the brilliant and courageous Ron Smith from us in 2012.

But 36 years after publishing my first essay in Statesman, my school paper at SUNY Stony Brook—which required that I harass its editors—I’m still here. In other words, I’ve probably been writing longer than Ricky has been drawing breath, and have been writing online since January, 2000.

That first essay was about a feminist takeover of the Administration Building, led by a treacherous former friend of mine. I’ve since published thousands of exposés, articles, essays and reviews, which I guestimate run well over 3,000,000 words. (An article on Donald Trump should be running in a few hours at VDARE.)

Whereas the corrupt, racist, treasonous SPLC somehow requires $200 million, I don’t even require $200,000. But I do require very modest funding, in order to pay the mortgage, feed my hungry babies, and reassure one of them (The Boss) that this is a serious concern, so that she doesn’t turn me out. And winter’s coming!

Alt-Right Celebrity @Ricky_Vaughn99 Suspended From Twitter
By Keegan Hankes & Alex Amend
October 06, 2016
SPLC

@Ricky_Vaughn99, one of the most prolific and longstanding Alt-Right personalities on Twitter, was suspended from the platform yesterday.
The pseudonymous account, created in January 2014, boasted around 62,000 followers and 221,000 tweets. It was identified in February by MIT’s Lab for Social Machines as the 107th most powerful influencer in the 2016 election. That’s higher than a stable of political figures and news outlets including @nbcnews and @nytpolitics.

Screenshot of a @Rick_Vaughn99 tweet celebrating the growing visibility of white nationalist and neo-Nazi publications, all part of the nebulous "Alt-Right" movement.

@Ricky_Vaughn99 openly embraced hate group leaders early and often ––all while maintaining an appeal among mainstream conservatives.
 

 

He appeared on Richard Spencer’s Radix Podcast on January 30. At the time of his appearance, the account had 13,000 followers. The two discussed Trump and the unique power of Twitter to spread their ideas. @Ricky_Vaughn99 also described his political evolution online, one that resembles many of the Alt-Right's adherents:

I began as sort of a deracinated libertarian before the start of the first Ron Paul for president campaign. From there, I started consuming the anti-feminist blogs of the manosphere. I never really bought into feminism. From there, around the time of the Trayvon incident, I was linked to My Posting Career from Chateau Heartiste. At that time I realized what a con job the media was playing on all of us, and how the mainstream race propaganda was all bullshit. So from there I began to explore the different facets of cultural Marxism. The Jewish role in subversion, homosexuality, et cetera.

Twitter is allegedly fielding bids for a sale this week, causing speculation that @Ricky_Vaughn99’s suspension is an attempt to sanitize its image. Potential buyers are rumored to include Google, Salesforce, and Disney. Neo-Nazi internet sleuths from the Daily Stormer see the chronology of @Ricky_Vaughn99's suspension as evidence of yet another Jewish conspiracy.

“Presumably either of these Jewish companies would get a lot more hardcore on censorship than Twitter has been so far, but they certainly don’t want to spend billions on a company that is just going to collapse,” wrote Andrew Anglin [N.S.: of the Daily Stormer]. “Maybe part of negotiations was ‘ban one of these anti-Semitic and racist Trump supporters so we can see what happens.”

Anglin was banned from Twitter for misconduct during the Missouri student protests last year over a lack of response to a string of bias [hoaxes] incidents from university officials. He led misinformation [?] campaigns with the help of his readers, seeding false information to disrupt protestors using the platform to organize.

 

Briefly last night, the hashtag #FreeRicky was the top trend on Twitter before falling to #NLWildCard and #AddSportsRuinAMovie.

More recently, in July, Twitter permanently banned Breitbart tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos for leading a campaign of harassment against comedian Leslie Jones that led her to briefly quit the platform in disgust. Yiannopoulos is a self-appointed leader of the Alt-Right who co-wrote a controversial primer that whitewashed the racism at the heart of the nebulous ideology. Yiannopoulos' involvement in the Alt-Right brand is a continuing source of angst for other leaders like Anglin, who declared a “Crusade” against the “kike infiltrator,” and Spencer, presumably because Milo has gotten more press. 

Twitter has not announced the specific reason for @Ricky_Vaughn99’s suspension, but his fans and followers are users who frequently harass others, including journalists who happen to be Jewish, conservatives who balk at open white nationalism, pejoratively labeled “>cuckservatives," and "Social Justice Warriors." Instead of banning thousands of accounts Twitter seems to be taking aim at perceived leaders of the worst actors on the platform.

During a discussion of digital platform censorship @Ricky_Vaughn99 told Spencer:

A Twitter account can get banned at any time. …. I’m going to keep doing Twitter. Maybe I’ll set up a backup where people can congregate if Twitter bans people, but Twitter is the best way to reach people, so I’m going to keep doing it until I get banned.

His premonition has finally come true.

De Blasio’s tantrum shows just how thin-skinned he is
By Todd Venezia
October 6, 2016 | 7:11 p.m.
New York Post

Awww, does Little Billy need a time out?

Mayor de Blasio acted like a colicky infant at a press conference Thursday, refusing to answer questions posed by a New York Post reporter and then saying it’s because the paper is not a “real” media outlet.

“You can keep trying, man. You can talk all you want,” he said, interrupting a question by City Hall bureau Chief Yoav Gonen about a controversial teacher annuity fund that cost taxpayers $1.2 billion last year.

As Gonen persisted, de Blasio whined: “I’m calling on real media outlets.”

The petulant child’s routine immediately backfired when other reporters, shocked at his behavior, grilled him about why he refused to respond to The Post.

“I’m saying what I think is the truth. And by the way, I think the people share a lot of my views,” he told a Wall Street Journal reporter who questioned his antics.

“I’ve got no use for a right-wing rag that attacks people who are good public servants and tries to undermine their reputations.”

He also ranted about a New York Post article that revealed how his administration boosted the number of special assistants on his staff to 264 — a 140-percent increase over Mayor Bloomberg — at a $18.7 million cost to tax payers.

Though he didn’t challenge the accuracy of the report, he complained that the Post singled out one of the “public servants,” Office for People with Disabilities Commissioner Victor Calise.

“This man is not anything but a change agent, an activist, a man — and go ask people in the disabled community. So I’m not playing that game,” he said.

His meltdown continued as reporters tried to ask him out [sic] some of the other scandals engulfing his administration.

Officer Didn't Shoot Attacker Because She Feared Backlash, Top Cop Says
By Kelly Bauer and Ted Cox
October 6, 2016 11:55 a.m.
DNAInfo Chicago

CHICAGO — As her face was being smashed into the pavement by a suspect Wednesday, a Chicago Police officer thought about using her gun to stop the man. Instead she was knocked out. She had been too worried about what people would think if she had used her weapon, she said.

The attack happened Wednesday. Officers on patrol were responding to a car crash in Austin when a man who had been in the crash attacked them, police said. Three officers were injured, one of them seriously, and they were taken to area hospitals for treatment.

The officer who was seriously injured, a 43-year-old woman and 17-year veteran of the department, was still hospitalized Thursday morning, according to a Chicago Police news release.

The man had punched her and "repeatedly smashed her face into the pavement" until she was knocked out, police said. She suffered head trauma and multiple cuts to her face and head.

Another officer used Mace and a stun gun on the man and eventually placed him into custody, police said.

Chicago Police Supt. Eddie Johnson, speaking at an awards ceremony for the Police and Fire departments, said the officer thought she was going to die and thought she should have shot the man, but she did not because she was worried about scrutiny, according to tweets from Fran Spielman, a reporter for the Sun-Times.
The incident highlights the need to "change the narrative," Johnson said, according to Spielman.

Johnson says the female cop said she thought she was going to die and knew should have shot the offender, but didn't want to risk scrutiny.

Translation: “Scrutiny” means getting railroaded.

Johnson says Wednesday's incident is further proof of the need to "change the narrative."

Ann Coulter: Media Keep Screaming that the American People Hate Trump, but the American People Haven’t Gotten the Memo

Re-posted by Nicholas Stix
 

MEDIA'S OUTRAGE SHOULD START WORKING ANY DAY NOW!
By Ann Coulter
October 5, 2016
AnnCoulter.com

Approximately every other week since he announced has been called "Trump's worst week yet!"

-- In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!

** ** **

Reviewing the state of the presidential race, I see that very little has changed for the past year. Every few weeks, the media roll out a new Trump "scandal" that has already been thoroughly covered, day in, day out, for the last 15 months.

In fact, all of the shocking new Trump scandals were aired in the very first GOP presidential debate, where he was asked seven questions about the following charges:

(1) He is mean to women.

(2) He is mean to Mexicans.

(3) He said nice things about Obamacare. (Since dropped by the media in order to help Hillary avoid the subject.)

(4) He is corrupt.

(5) He is a bad businessman.

(6) He is not a Republican. (Also since dropped -- Hillary's losing enough Democrats to Trump without reminding them that he's not a "real Republican.”)

(7) His "tone.”

All that's already been priced into the Trump brand. What new results do the media expect from telling us that Trump not only insulted Rosie O'Donnell, but also insulted Hispanic Mattress Girl, Alicia Machado: baby mama to a Mexican drug lord?

The only advance in the narrative is that the octaves of journalists' voices keep getting higher, as they repeat the exact same attacks on Trump.

Each time, the media claim victory by asserting with bland certainty that any drop in Trump's poll numbers is because of something very upsetting to journalists, but which is generally quite popular with voters -- the Mexican rapists speech, the Muslim ban, and his response to the choleric Muslim, Khizr Khan.

The media can tell us where the candidates stand in the polls. They can't tell us why. Nonetheless, they insist on identifying the precise statement of Trump's that has caused any setback, which always happens to be whatever the media is being hysterical about.

Most absurd was the widely repeated claim that Trump's "insult" of GOLD STAR DAD Khizr Khan caused him to dip in the polls. Except the problem is: (1) He didn't insult Khan; and (2) anyone who occasionally leaves his apartment realizes that no one would have minded if he had.

Khan's son was one of 14 Muslims to die serving in the U.S. military, which, coincidentally, is the precise number of American soldiers who have been killed by Muslims serving in the U.S. Military.

At the Democratic Convention, Khan waved a copy of the Constitution, asking Trump, "Have you even read the U.S. Constitution? I will gladly lend you my copy. In this document, look for the words, 'the right of all Muslims in the world to move to America shall not be abridged!’"

Actually, that's not in the Constitution. Incomprehensibly, Khan told Trump to look for the words "liberty" and "equal protection of law" -- words that are noticeable for not mentioning "the right of all Muslims in the world to move to America.”

He rounded out his harangue saying to Trump: "You have sacrificed nothing and no one!”

In an article titled "Ire for Trump as He Derides Muslim Parents," The New York Times described Trump's response to Khan as "startling," and said it "drew quick and widespread condemnation." This included a tweet from Bush speechwriter Peter Wehner, calling Trump "a man of sadistic cruelty. With him there's no bottom. Now go ahead and defend him.”

I must have accidentally been out of the country for a few days because I missed the part where Trump insulted the Khans.

But according to the Times, Trump was "derid(ing)" the Khans when he went on "Good Morning America" and called the snarling Muslim a "nice guy," wished him luck, wondered why his wife didn't say anything, and talked about the reasons Americans might want to hit the pause button on mass Muslim immigration.

To wit, Trump said:

"Well, I would say, we have had a lot of problems with radical Islamic terrorism, that's what I'd say. We have had a lot of problems where you look at San Bernardino, you look at Orlando, you look at the World Trade Center, you look at so many different things. You look at what happened to the priest over the weekend in Paris, where his throat was cut, 85-year-old, beloved Catholic priest. You look at what happened in Nice, France, a couple of weeks ago. I would say, you gotta take a look at that, because something is going on, and it's not good.”

I understand why the media are upset that Trump mentioned these notable contributions of Muslim immigrants, but unless I don't know the country at all anymore, I do not believe a majority of Americans minded one bit.

The media are betting that after 9/11, the diaper bomber, the shoe bomber, the Boston Marathon, Fort Hood, Chattanooga, San Bernardino, the Orlando nightclub, the Chelsea bombing, and the recent mall attacks in both Minnesota and Washington, the revulsion of the American public to anti-Muslim bigotry will be a HUGE factor in this election.

Journalists swim in a sea of agreement. They don't stop to think that the identity politics they majored in back in college might not be popular with all Americans.

Polls showed a post-convention bounce for Hillary before Trump had said word one about Khan. Perhaps their nonsense headlines about Trump attacking a GOLD STAR FAMILY also helped them in the short run.

But as soon as the public found out that it was this specific family and, also, that Trump didn't attack them, voters weren't mad at Trump, but they sure were with the media.

Obama Consigliere David Axelrod on Mike Pence Tonight; Trump Tough Guy Corey Lewandowski Counter-Punches (CNN)

By Nicholas Stix

When Tim Kaine went on the attack, “Pence had this face like, ‘Who would say something so ridiculous?’ Well, Donald Trump did.”

Axelrod and the other Hillary supports kept hammering home their Democrat talking point, in order to steal victory from the jaws of defeat: Pence didn’t defend Trump; he only won the debate, to the degree that he attacked Clinton.

Old Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski then pointed out that whatever Trump or Pence does, the media condemn him. If Trump/Pence defends Trump, they’re wrong. If Trump/Pence refuses to address the attacks, they “lose.”

Who Looked and Sounded More Presidential Tonight?

By Nicholas Stix

Mike Pence looked more presidential than Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and Tim Kaine combined.

However, he is a wimp on immigration and militant homosexualism.

Ten years ago, Pence offered a phony “Pence Plan,” which he offered as a “compromise” on the choice between amnesty vs. deportation. But it was no compromise, and indeed, there can be no compromise. “Compromise” is a euphemism for amnesty.

He has also, more recently, wimped out on militant homosexualism and sexual psychotics.

Thus, while Mike Pence might be the president from Central Casting, I would not want him for my president. Trump’s the one.

Does Tim Kaine Ever Tell the Truth?

By Nicholas Stix

Kaine asserted that Trump’s proposal to cut off immigration from certain nations and religions is “unconstitutional.”

That’s a bald-faced lie. The president has the prerogative to ban immigration by any individual or group, for any reason, or no reason at all.

Kaine then condemned Trump and Pence for violating “Jeffersonian” principles. Thomas Jefferson not only never supported swamping America with immigrants and illegal aliens, but he argued that any and all racial “diversity” was intolerable.

“Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than that these people [the Negroes] shall be free; nor is it less certain that the two races equally free, cannot live under the same government.”

Man killed by LA officers after foot chase had loaded gun, police chief says
October 03, 2016
Associated Press/Fox News

A black man fatally shot by Los Angeles police during a weekend foot pursuit was holding a loaded semiautomatic gun in one hand and turned toward officers, Police Chief Charlie Beck said Monday.

The chief disclosed details of Saturday's shooting of Carnell Snell, 18, in South Los Angeles and a separate fatal police shooting of a Hispanic man Sunday amid heightened tensions over police shootings involving blacks and other minorities in California and elsewhere.

Snell was in the back seat of a car that officers noticed because its paper plates did not match the year of the car, Beck said.

Snell ducked from sight and then jumped out of the car while holding his waistband as if supporting something, the chief said.

After a chase of several hundred yards, Snell pulled a handgun with his left hand and turned toward the officers, who fired six rounds. Beck said Snell was hit twice, once in the torso and once in a knee. He died at the scene.

Snell's gun was fully loaded with one round in the chamber but was not fired, Beck said.

The officers were not wearing body cameras but a surveillance video from a business clearly showed Snell was armed, Beck said.

A group of people protested outside Beck's news conference, chanting, "No justice, no peace, no racist police." Three people were arrested for unlawful assembly.

During the weekend, the shooting led to small but rowdy protests in South Los Angeles, resulting in several arrests.

Activists have called on police to publicly name the officers involved in the shooting, which occurred near Snell's home. They also appealed for a quick and transparent investigation.

"We don't want to see a cover-up. We don't want to see a whitewash," Earl Ofari Hutchinson of the Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable said after meeting with the Snell family. "We have a family that's grieving. We have a community that's grieving."

[But apparently, no one grieves for law-abiding black murder victims, or for law-abiding, white murder victims.]

Beck also revealed new details of an unrelated fatal shooting by Los Angeles officers on Sunday.

In that incident, a man was shot when he pointed what turned out to be a replica handgun with an orange tip that had been colored black, Beck said.

The man remained unidentified. He was only described as Hispanic.

Beck said both officers involved in Sunday's shooting were wearing body cameras and the footage supports their accounts while refuting claims that the man was shot on the ground.

The officers were responding to reports of a man with a gun.

Snell was the third black man in five days to die in confrontations with police in Southern California.

Last Tuesday, Alfred Olango was fatally shot by an officer in the San Diego suburb of El Cajon, triggering three days of angry and sometimes violent protests. Olango was shot when he took a "shooting stance" and pointed at an officer with what turned out to be a 4-inch vape pen -- an electronic cigarette device.

On Friday, Reginald Thomas died after being shot with a Taser by police in Pasadena. He was armed with a knife and his wife described him as mentally ill. His brother told a 911 dispatcher that Thomas was high and had a history of violence.

Meanwhile, the family of a black man killed by police in Sacramento in July demanded murder charges Monday against two officers heard on a dash-cam video talking about trying to hit the man with their police cruiser before shooting him 14 times.

[What was wrong about their debating whether to hit the perp with their squad car, rather than shooting him?]

The officers "behaved like big game hunters closing in on an animal," said John Burris, a lawyer for the family of 50-year-old Joseph Mann.

In Snell's South Los Angeles neighborhood of small stucco houses and well-kept lawns there was a makeshift shrine of flowers and candles in front of the property where he died.

Christine Conley, a next-door neighbor of Snell's for 10 years, described the teenager she knew as "CJ" as cheerful and polite, someone who liked to dress nicely and didn't sport gang clothing or tattoos.

She knew he had been in jail but didn't know why. A Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department website indicated that Snell was arrested in January and released from jail on probation in June. It did not describe the nature of the offense.

[That he was in jail for five months, and still had to do probation, means he was a convicted felon. But the man (“teenager”) never insulted or harmed Christine Conley, so he must have been a victim of racial profiling, which is what Associated Press operatives Christopher Weber, John Antczak, and Daisy Nguyen want the reader to believe.]

"He's never given me any problems. He's always been respectful and kind," Conley said. "He was always happy."

She said there is outrage in the black community "because of the way police handle our people."

[If she were honest, she would have said, ‘because of the way police handle our criminals.’ ]

"If he was any other race than black, he may have had another chance," she said.

[Not if he did the same thing.]

Taxing Distractions: One Needs a Machete to Cut Through the Anti-Trump Media’s Hypocrisy (Pat Buchanan)

Re-posted by Nicholas Stix
 

Aborting the Trump Revolution
By Patrick J. Buchanan
Monday, October 3, 2016, at 8:37 p.m.
Buchanan.org

In taking that $915 million loss in 1995, and carrying it forward to shelter future income, Donald Trump did nothing wrong. By both his family and his business, he did everything right.

In a famous 1947 dissent, Judge Learned Hand wrote:

“[T]here is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. … Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.”

This writer’s father spent his career as a tax accountant who studied tax codes and utilized every permissible deduction to keep his clients’ tax bills as low as legally possible.

That was his business, as it is the business of every accountant, including those who prepare the returns of the politicians and journalists piling on Trump as some sort of scofflaw tax cheat who has evaded his moral obligations to the state.

One needs a machete to cut through this hypocrisy.

Hillary Clinton benefited from a $700,000 loss on her 2015 income taxes. In the days of poverty in Arkansas, she took a $2 deduction for a contribution to charity of Bill’s old underpants.

Five weeks before Election Day, Trump’s taxes have displaced the former Miss Universe as the critical issue, as determined by the anti-Trump media.

Their motivation is not difficult to discern. Their goals are two. First, make Trump unacceptable as an agent of change. Second, keep the people distracted from their determination to rid America of the incompetent and corrupt ruling class that controls this capital city.

Consider but a few of the disasters that establishment does not want discussed or debated, or the American people thinking about, when they head for the polls in November.

There is the great betrayal of the American working class, the deindustrialization of the country, and the loss of economic independence it took America a century to achieve.

This disaster was produced by the trade deals enacted by Beltway politicians for the corporate contributors of their campaigns whose highest loyalty is to the bottom line of a balance sheet.

On behalf of these special interests, U.S. politicians made the People’s Republic of China the greatest manufacturing power on earth and halted the traditional annual rise in wages of our working men and women.

Beijing is now using the wealth compiled to build up their air, naval and missile forces to push us out of Asia and back across the Pacific.

Then there is the illegal invasion of America and Europe by the impoverished masses of the south, who have never before been fully assimilated into any Western nation.

Unrivaled since the last days of the Roman Empire, this invasion has Americans pleading for a security wall on their border, propelled Britain’s exit from the EU, and could yet cause a breakup of Europe.

What is at stake here? Ultimately, Western civilization.

We have wars going with no end in sight in Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Yemen. We have Beltway hawks howling for a “no-fly zone” and the shooting down of Syrian planes, though the chairman of the Joint Chiefs warns this could mean war with Russia.

The War Party does not want Americans heading to the polls thinking of the thousands of dead and wounded and trillions of dollars lost in their misbegotten adventures in the Middle and Near East.

Trump is new to national politics. Yet, with all the mistakes he has made, and all the savagery of the media attacks upon him, he is still, remarkably, very much in the race for president of the United States.

That his crowds remain huge and his following loyal, and that he remains competitive, testifies to the depth of the detestation of our cultural, political and media elites out there in Middle America.

But what happens if Hillary Clinton’s media acolytes keep the country’s focus on trivial pursuits, and she prevails?

What happens to America, if the uprisings and rebellions in the two parties – Donald Trump and Ted Cruz in the GOP, the Bernie Sanders revolt in the Democratic Party — are turned back, and we get in 2017 the same old people and same old policies we repudiated in 2015 and 2016?

What happens if the election, in which America demanded change in both parties, results in change in neither party?

One wonders: Do America’s reigning elites believe the Trump movement is but a passing phase? Do they believe that the rise of populist and nationalist parties across Europe is but a seasonal epidemic of the flu that will die out, after which we can all get back to building the New World Order of Bush I and Barack Obama?

Will history look back upon 2016 as a system failure?

Simple solution: She/he/it, or s/h/i/t, for short.

If feminists and sexual psychopaths were really serious about neutrality, they would call for calling everything, “it.”

(By the way, I came up with s/h/it in 1995.)

Presidential Debate Post Mortem in 36 Words: Racist, NBC News Moderator Lester Holt’s Attempt to Win Election for Hillary Clinton

 

Clinton operative Lester Holt is paid by NBC; here he is presiding over last Monday’s debate
 

Re-posted by Nicholas Stix

A friend sent this along. My reader-researcher Grand Rapids Anonymous has exposed NBC news reader Lester Holt’s racism and corruption with such relentlessness that sometimes he gets fed up with analysis, and goes for a change of pace with satire.

I’m glad to see that Fox News’ James Rosen stated the obvious.

Clinton attack dog Erik Wemple of the Washington Post, a newspaper that so hates Donald Trump that it had a regular feature for months last year, the ‘Trump is Hitler’ essay, “bit” Rosen.

While I have not polled my contributors, I feel safe in saying that Lester Holt enjoys the respect of nobody at this blog.
 

"Mr. Holt . . . pressed Mr. Trump pointedly on just about every perceived area of vulnerability for him . . . . . . but somehow failed to press Mrs. Clinton even a single time on any of her perceived points of vulnerability." James Rosen, Fox News Washington correspondent, September 27, 2016

Full quote:

“So it eluded the president’s attention that Mr. Holt, who enjoys the respect of everyone in this room, this questioner included, nonetheless, last night, pressed Mr. Trump pointedly on just about every perceived area of vulnerability for him, including his early statements about the Iraq War, his refusal to release his tax returns, his role in the birther issue, his endorsement of stop-and-frisk, and his comments about whether or not Mrs. Clinton has a presidential look, but somehow failed to press Mrs. Clinton even a single time on any of her perceived points of vulnerability such as her conduct with her emails, the role of the Clinton Foundation in the Clinton State Department, her refusal to release her Goldman Sachs speeches, her deep trustworthy deficit with the American electorate, her role in the destruction of Libya or the Benghazi attacks. None of those things were pressed by Mr. Holt. Did that elude the president’s attention, that sort of seeming imbalance in the questioning?”

Is Someone Setting Up Nationwide Lynchings on Monday? Someone Has been Sending Whites Invitations to Free Screenings of Black Supremacist Snuff Movie, The Birth of a Nation

 

 

By Reader-Researcher B

Received a message (attached) from the Jamaica [Queens] Center for Arts and Learning today (from an e-list) inviting me to a free screening of the Slavery Porn film Birth of a Nation.

It included a link to Eventbrite where I could register for a free ticket.

I did a Bing search for the JCAL Jamaica showing link, but could not find it. I did however find a multitude of similar “free” showings, all over the country.

Given that the movie theater in Jamaica is in a community where people think nothing of shouting at the screen, loudly talking on the cellphone or to each other during the film, or beating anyone who voices an objection to any of the above behavior, you're talking in general about very low-information, uneducated people.

Is this “free” nationwide showing (similar to the packing of theaters some months ago with “free” seats for the failed film Selma) being done in the hope of creating further civil unrest and violent acts a few weeks before the election?

Last Stand in Butte? Mass Cheating by Menacing, Moslem, Saudi Students at Montana Tech, Who Threatened Faculty with Violence; Provost Doug Abbott Refused to Protect Faculty and Legitimate Students from Moslem Thugs; Administtration Cover-Up Failed; Idaho State University also Implicated, Though It Denies It

"Organized," "belligerent cheaters" overwhelm Tech summer classes
By Hunter Pauli and Renata Birkenbuel
For the Independent Record Sep 30, 2016

BUTTE -- A group of "organized," "belligerent cheaters" overwhelmed several classes at Montana Tech this summer.

The spate of academic dishonesty, which resulted in the expulsion of 15 students, appears to have been far more systematic and widespread than previously reported.

Montana Tech professors and proctors were confronted by dozens of out-of-state [?!] Middle Eastern students blatantly cheating through a variety of methods, including smuggled cell phones, earpieces, fake calculators, smart watches, hand signals, mass bathroom breaks, fake
IDs, old exam copies and at least one diversionary fake fainting episode, according to documents attached to a Faculty Senate report.

The report, authored by Montana Tech professors and proctors, details a summer-long escalation of cheating and resultant crackdowns culminating in students intimidating and threatening faculty members teaching general engineering courses, which were populated at up to 10 times their typical class size. The documents, obtained by The Montana Standard, were not published online on the senate's web site.

General engineering lab director Matt Egloff said the situation escalated as cheaters became aggressive when their academic dishonesty was exposed throughout the summer.

“Faculty and staff proctoring these tests were outnumbered about 10:1 by these belligerent cheaters for all of these tests. Most of the proctors and faculty are old, small, etc. — in other words not people trained to handle a fight with a single 20-year-old let alone 100 of them. Had these angry belligerent cheaters decided to riot, we would have been overwhelmed,” Egloff said in the report.

Summer enrollment for out-of-state undergraduate students grew this summer by 122 percent, with 130 students compared to last summer’s 59, according to the Montana University System’s summer 2016 enrollment report.

In terms of enrollment, “It was a very good summer,” Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Doug Abbott said.

Abbott said his office received reports of academic dishonesty concerning 46 students this summer. Some students were caught multiple times, with 62 individual reported cases of cheating. The faculty senate report lists dozens more cases. Montana Tech’s academic dishonesty policy does not state how many infractions result in expulsion, but Abbott said he maintains a two-strike policy.

Six courses were named in the report as affected by cheating, most of them engineering prerequisites. According to the registrar’s office, summer enrollment for each of those 3-credit courses added up to 486 seats.

With the cost of nonresident summer tuition for three credits $2,457 a head, Montana Tech counted around $1.2 million in tuition from the six courses highlighted for cheating this summer. Abbott said the dishonest students, including those expelled, were not reimbursed.

While instructors clarified in the Faculty Senate report that not all students in the summer general engineering courses cheated, most did. [Wouldn't want to stereotype, would we? Besides, the ones who didn't cheat probably weren't Arab Moslems.] The final course average of the 56 students in Nathan Huft’s general engineering 201 statics class was 37 percent, an F grade, despite extra credit for bonus questions, attendance quizzes and exam corrections. Only about 10 percent passed.

Cheating was so rampant that Huft and other instructors were unable to keep track of every instance. By finals week the problem was still extreme.

Faculty gave final exams like they were the high security test that licenses professional engineers, completely controlling the testing environment. As many faculty as could be found were brought in to proctor final exams for the general engineering classes.

Egloff’s requests to hold exams for larger classes in Tech’s gym and station police on campus during finals week were denied by administrators.

“I did not think it was necessary nor a good idea to have uniformed police occupy our campus,” Abbott said in an email to the Standard. “When is it a good idea to have uniformed police officers occupy a campus?”

[Nowadays? Every day!]

Police had to show up anyway after students ejected for cheating began screaming at instructors, calling them racist and filming them with their phones.

Female employees were singled out for verbal harassment, and one female student was tripped as she walked through a large group of ejected students, according to the report.

The report said ejected students mobbed instructors. Security guards extricated some instructors and locked others inside the engineering building after shoving the mob out the door.

One proctor received threatening messages on his phone after the tests.

“Many faculty and staff expressed concern for their personal safety during and after these classes,” Egloff said in the report.

“Bottom line: Faculty, staff, and students were put in serious danger all summer long from this group of belligerent cheaters,” the report ended.

Provost Abbott declined to disclose what schools the students came from, citing student privacy concerns, and said that the schools weren’t informed of the cheating.

[Why not?!]

Evidence points to the students coming from Idaho State University, including suspicious doctor’s notes from Pocatello, an email allegedly sent out to faculty, and a cheating scandal at ISU involving Middle Eastern students as reported by the New York Times in March.

ISU’s associate dean of science and engineering David Rodgers told the Times 80 to 90 percent of cheating reported in recent semesters in his department involved the university’s roughly 1,500 foreign students, of whom Saudis and Kuwaitis make up 77 percent.

If any of Montana Tech’s cheaters did come from Pocatello, Idaho State University isn’t rushing to claim them.

“Idaho State University will not comment on alleged infractions committed by former students at other colleges and universities that are unrelated to our institution,” said associate vice president of marketing and communications for ISU Stuart Summers in a statement.

[The liar. Of course, they're related!]

Many of Idaho State’s Saudi students study under the same Saudi government program as the 36 Montana Tech students implicated in a bribery and grade-changing scandal in 2012. Those students paid tuition courtesy of the $6 billion King Abdullah Scholarship Program, which
sponsors up to 90 percent of Saudi students studying abroad.

The number of Saudi students studying at American universities has grown sharply under the program, but falling oil prices have the Kingdom restricting scholarships to top schools, as reported by Moody’s Investor’s Services in February. Montana Tech and Idaho State may lose a lucrative source of tuition dollars, but the Saudi embassy has stayed mum on the issue.

[God forbid, they should forgo taking money for cheating Moslem thugs, and instead admit gifted, white American students!]

Whether Montana Tech finds itself in this problem again, Faculty Senate has dug in, meeting on a weekly basis to decide best how to revise the “academic dishonesty” policy so it best reflects instructor and student needs.

Egloff called the summer overwhelming, but was proud the faculty kept cheaters from getting away with it.

“It was ugly, but it was a success,” Egloff said. “Let’s make it not ugly next time.”
